This suit is absolutely breathtaking. I own several Trina Turk swimsuits. Yes, they're expensive, but believe me they're worth it. They last for years and years without fading or stretching. The pattern and fit of this suit was the best of any T.Turk one pieces I've tried. I'm 5'9 with long legs and a short waist and typically wear a size 6 or 8 in small suits. Trina Turk suits usually run a size small so I went with size 8, which was perfect. My chest is a small 34B and this suit made me look much larger than that. The back was beautiful and the bottom of the back was sexy but not too revealing (and I do have a booty!). The reason this suit gets 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the gold buckle in the front. It's VERY shiny and thick - it cheapens the suit to me. I didn't notice it in the picture, but its very obvious when you put the suit on. That being said, if you like bling and gold metal on your suit, you'll love this one. I toyed with the idea of keeping it and having someone redo the chest buckle - thats how much I loved the suit. In the end, I decided that a suit this expensive should be perfect. Unfortunately, this one wasn't to me.
